This has been done for a long time. I got back to Core Update 100 and it 
was being done then already. It may have been done since squid was 
started in IPFire.

If it is something that should not be done, and from the description I 
would agree with that, then it should be changed but I think it can wait 
for Core Update 187 as we have been living with it for at least 8 years 
already.

Just went back to the earliest Core Update in the git repo, which is 
Core Update 30, and that also ships the access.log file so effectively 
it has been done for ever.

Regards,
Adolf.
